The Word of Faith Brings Salvation

10 Brothers and sisters, my heart’s desire and my prayer to God for them is for their salvation. 2 For I testify about them that they have (A)a zeal for God, but not in accordance with knowledge. 3 For not knowing about (B)God’s righteousness and (C)seeking to establish their own, they did not subject themselves to the righteousness of God. 4 For (D)Christ is the [a]end of the Law for righteousness to (E)everyone who believes.

5 For Moses writes of the righteousness that is [b]based on the Law, that the person who performs [c]them (F)will live by [d]them. 6 But (G)the righteousness [e]based on faith speaks as follows: “(H)Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will go up into heaven?’ (that is, to bring Christ down), 7 or ‘Who will descend into the (I)abyss?’ (that is, to (J)bring Christ up from the dead).” 8 But what does it say? “(K)The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart”—that is, the word of faith which we are preaching, 9 [f]that (L)if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and (M)believe in your heart that (N)God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved; 10 for with the heart a person believes, [g]resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, [h]resulting in salvation. 11 For the Scripture says, “(O)Whoever believes in Him will not be [i]put to shame.” 12 For (P)there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord is (Q)Lord of (R)all, abounding in riches for all who call on Him; 13 for “(S)Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”

14 How then are they to call on Him in whom they have not believed? How are they to believe in Him (T)whom they have not heard? And how are they to hear without (U)a preacher? 15 But how are they to preach unless they are sent? Just as it is written: “(V)How beautiful are the feet of those who [j](W)bring good news of good things!”

16 However, they (X)did not all heed the [k]good news; for Isaiah says, “(Y)Lord, who has believed our report?” 17 So faith comes from (Z)hearing, and hearing by (AA)the word [l]of Christ.

18 But I say, surely they have never heard, have they? On the contrary:

“(AB)Their voice has gone out into all the earth,
And their words to the ends of the [m]world.”

19 But I say, surely Israel did not know, did they? First Moses says,

“(AC)I will (AD)make you jealous with those who are not a nation,
With a foolish nation I will anger you.”

20 And Isaiah is very bold and says,

“(AE)I was found by those who did not seek Me,
I revealed Myself to those who did not ask for Me.”

21 But as for Israel, He says, “(AF)I have spread out My hands all day long to a disobedient and obstinate people.”

Rimljanima 10
Biblija: suvremeni hrvatski prijevod

10 Braćo i sestre, najviše od svega želim i molim Boga da Židovi budu spašeni. 2 Ja vam mogu potvrditi da Židovi od srca žele služiti Bogu, ali ne znaju kako. 3 Budući da nisu poznavali pravednost, koja dolazi od Boga, pokušavali su steći pravednost na svoj način. Zato se nisu podvrgli Božjem načinu opravdanja ljudi. 4 Krist je ispunio i dovršio Zakon da bi omogućio opravdanje svakome tko vjeruje u njega.

5 O opravdanju, koje dolazi po Zakonu, Mojsije piše: »Onaj tko izvrši zapovijedi Zakona, imat će život po njima.«[a] 6 Ali u Svetom pismu se govori o opravdanju koje dolazi po vjeri: »Nemojte se pitati: ‘Tko će uzići na Nebo?’—što znači: ‘Tko će dovesti Krista s Neba na Zemlju?’ 7 I nemojte se pitati: ‘Tko će sići u podzemni svijet?’—što znači: ‘Tko će sići da dovede Krista od mrtvih?’«

8 Ovako piše u Svetom pismu: »Božja vam je riječ blizu, ona je na vašim usnama i u vašem srcu.«[b] Ta je riječ poruka vjere koju propovijedamo. 9 Dakle, ako svojim ustima priznaš »Isus je Gospodar« i ako u svom srcu vjeruješ da ga je Bog podigao iz mrtvih, bit ćeš spašen. 10 Srcem vjerujemo i tako smo opravdani, a ustima priznajemo vjeru i tako smo spašeni.

11 U Svetom pismu piše: »Nitko tko vjeruje u njega, neće se razočarati.«[c] 12 Zato što nema razlike između Židova i nežidova jer Gospodin je jedan i isti za sve ljude te bogato blagoslivlja one koji ga zazivaju. 13 Tako i piše u Svetom pismu: »Svi koji zazovu Gospodina, bit će spašeni.«[d]

14 Ali prije nego što zazovu Boga, moraju u njega vjerovati. A opet, ne mogu vjerovati u njega ako nisu čuli o njemu. A da bi čuli o Gospodinu, netko im mora o njemu govoriti. 15 Kako će pak netko govoriti ljudima o njemu ako ga nitko nije poslao? Kao što piše u Svetom pismu: »Kako je lijepo vidjeti glasnika koji donosi Radosnu vijest!«[e]

16 No nisu svi prihvatili Radosnu vijest. Prorok Izaija kaže: »Gospodine, tko je povjerovao u ono što smo rekli?«[f] 17 Vjera dolazi kada slušamo Radosnu vijest, a ta se vijest čuje kroz propovijedanje poruke o Kristu.

18 A ja pitam: »Zar ljudi nisu čuli našu poruku?« Sigurno su čuli, u Svetom pismu piše:

»Njihov glas obišao je cijelu Zemlju
    i njihove su se riječi čule do kraja svijeta.«[g]

19 Ponovo pitam: »Zar Izraelci nisu razumjeli?« Najprije poslušajte što Mojsije govori o Bogu:

»Učinit ću vas ljubomornima
    narodom koji to nije.
Razljutit ću vas
    narodom koji ne razumije.«[h]

20 Izaija hrabro izjavljuje:

»Našli su me oni koji me nisu tražili.
    Pokazao sam se onima koji nisu za mene pitali.«[i]

21 Za Izrael je rekao:

»Cijeli dan pružao sam ruke prema njima,
    ali oni su neposlušni i prkosni.«[j]

Romans 10
New International Version

10 Brothers and sisters, my heart’s desire(A) and prayer to God for the Israelites is that they may be saved. 2 For I can testify about them that they are zealous(B) for God, but their zeal is not based on knowledge. 3 Since they did not know the righteousness of God and sought to establish their own, they did not submit to God’s righteousness.(C) 4 Christ is the culmination of the law(D) so that there may be righteousness for everyone who believes.(E)

5 Moses writes this about the righteousness that is by the law: “The person who does these things will live by them.”[a](F) 6 But the righteousness that is by faith(G) says: “Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’”[b](H) (that is, to bring Christ down) 7 “or ‘Who will descend into the deep?’”[c](I) (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead).(J) 8 But what does it say? “The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart,”[d](K) that is, the message concerning faith that we proclaim: 9 If you declare(L) with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,”(M) and believe(N) in your heart that God raised him from the dead,(O) you will be saved.(P) 10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved. 11 As Scripture says, “Anyone who believes in him will never be put to shame.”[e](Q) 12 For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile(R)—the same Lord is Lord of all(S) and richly blesses all who call on him, 13 for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord(T) will be saved.”[f](U)

14 How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? 15 And how can anyone preach unless they are sent? As it is written: “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!”[g](V)

16 But not all the Israelites accepted the good news.(W) For Isaiah says, “Lord, who has believed our message?”[h](X) 17 Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message,(Y) and the message is heard through the word about Christ.(Z) 18 But I ask: Did they not hear? Of course they did:

“Their voice has gone out into all the earth,
    their words to the ends of the world.”[i](AA)

19 Again I ask: Did Israel not understand? First, Moses says,

“I will make you envious(AB) by those who are not a nation;
    I will make you angry by a nation that has no understanding.”[j](AC)

20 And Isaiah boldly says,

“I was found by those who did not seek me;
    I revealed myself to those who did not ask for me.”[k](AD)

21 But concerning Israel he says,

“All day long I have held out my hands
    to a disobedient and obstinate people.”[l](AE)
